Energy Storage in Miniaturized Capacitors May Boost Green Energy Technology .... Towards an Internet of energy?
My hunch seems right.
Capacitors are the key to the next generation of energy smoothing devices. Perhaps, they can be scaled up as well to reduce energy waste and allow all firms and households of energy production to enter the grid. Democratic access to the grid to sell excess production could allow for cheap energy beyond present thinking and greatly reduce demands on fossil fuel sources .....
Crowd sourcing of energy by allowing household access to supply energy along the lines of an Internet is the key to ending a drift towards domination by a few greedy companies and investors.
It's important to free people from the dominance of the large energy monopolies and to create a new style of energy Internet that people can use to share information as well as supply others with energy. By combining energy with data flow we can solve many many problems.
The philosophy of scaling up can be defeated by democratic technologies based on the same principles that created the Internet of data.

Demonising wi-fi is dangerous to your child’s health | The National Business Review
I wonder how the party poopers that said smoking can kill you felt. Spreading EMF radiation can kill you or anyone or life in general. Sorry to be a party pooper ....
Cellphones, wi-fi and electromagnetic radiation | The National Business Review
Reading this link you would think that there was no danger whatsoever with radiation. Life traps uses radiation to perform its many functions. Microwave ovens without metal inside do one thing and with metal inside do another. Metals are key to life processes and mitigate the physics environment that seemingly harmless radiation travels into. The scientific medical and biophysical discussion really needs to be opened up otherwise we could all die from cancer threshold from ultraviolet light or as the case may well be from the effects on unfortunate people from man made and distributed willy nilly electronic stuff we don't even begin to understand.
To say a technology is safe when you disregard the complete evidence is criminal! Do we let people live shorter uncomfortable lives because the majority feel its safe and ok. Mankind has made this mistake many times before as commercial demands outweigh prudence.

Labour's reforms 'will ensure new banks flourish to challenge big five' | Business | The Guardian
Oh dear. They should ask me first?
Silly reforms that are way off what is needed to deal with lack of competition.
Labour / Soc Dem do not understand either the economic problem nor the dynamic nature of banking competition.

Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth.
